NOTICE.

Owing to the extrayagant waste OF
water and disregard of the rules of the
Water Company, there was not sufficient
pressure Wednesday to run the Brass
rolling mill, and they were obliged to
shot down. 1t is to the interest of every
citizen to accommodate this factory,
and the Water Company will first ask
that this unnecessary waste of water be
stopped, and, if no attention is paid to
this request, the persons thus violating
the rules will be sought out and the
water shut off. The citizens must see
the necessity Of complying strictly to
the rules regulating the use of water.
Let each and every citizen try to adj
vance the interests of the city by being
careful of any undue waste of water.
We are, respectfully,

TOBACCO AND THE PULSE.

DR.. Troitski publishes the results of
number of observations made by him
to ascertain the effects produced on the
temperature and pulse by smoking.
He has found that in every case, varying
with the condition of the individual,
there is an exhilaration of the pulse
rate and slight elevating of tempera-
ture. 1t appears, in fact, that if the
average temperature of non-smokers
were represented by 1000, that of mod
crate smokers would be zoos, and while
the heart in the former case was MAX
ing 1000 pulsations, in the latter it
would beat 1,1S0 times-hence the
danger of tobacco smoking.

Mr.. EDITOR With your permission
| should like, through the columns Of
your paper, to call the attention of the
people of Kenosha county to what APP
pears to me to be the worst stain ever
put upon the records of this or any Other
county. Those who were here during
the perllous times of the rebellion, and
who attended meeting after meeting
for the purpose of raising volunteers TO
I'LL our quota. know the sacred prom
ises AID pledges given on our part to in
duce men to volunteer in defense of our
country. Last fall one-armed soldier.
who is thoroughly competent, and has
as clear record as any man in the
state, was defeated for the Office of sheriff
OF this county, shameful disregard of
these pledges. On the 18th inst. a meet
ing OF the County Board of Supervisors
was called for the purpose of appointing
a Treasurer to fill the vacancy caused
by the death Of the late Treasurer, HI.
Z. Clark. appeared before the Board
at that meeting for the purpose of pre-
senting for the position the name oil
Capt. Frantz, the one-armed soldier re-
ferred to, and giving my reasons there
for. In the hope that the Board would
right in measure the wrong of last falls |
election, which the Republicans had
power to do, | was in most discourteous
and humiliating way refused hearing. |
The record of proceedings will show in
what manner. 1t was not to exceed |
fifteen minutes from the time the Board |
took the matter up until the Chairman
had declared that they had made choice
of his son for the position. In that brief
space of time l undertake to say, Mr..
Editor, a record was made more shame
ful and disgraceful than ever stained the
page of any book of county records of
this or any other state. The shameless
disregard of the right of every citizen to
be heard at proper time and place-the
total disregard of sacred pledges made
to our citizen volunteer soldiers during
the war-the base ingratitude shown this
brave one armed soldier, Capt. Frantz,
sum q brief record, but blacker than
anything of the kind / ever heard of l
have, Mr.. Editor, taken time for reffec-
ton, and think understand the inn
port of the words used in this communi-
cation, and [ have to say they are not
strong enough to express the real wick
edness OF this action of our County
Board.
I write this, hoping you will give
It place In your paper. and that it
will be read by every citizen of this
county. Very respectfully,
q. G. SIMMONS.

A newspaper wants fostering then
it can reflect credit on its location. Take
your home paper. 1t gives you more

it is to your interests to support your
